The crimson sun of Mezarte bled across the Iorph dust, casting long, jagged shadows. Captain Izor stood rigid, sand gritting his teeth, his sword a cold weight at his hip. Orders were orders: capture the immortal Iolfs for the King. He had burned camps and enslaved without remorse, a machine of war. Then, he saw you. A healer, respected and calm, her hands capable of mending wounds. She met his gaze not with fear, but with defiant stillness. The wind seemed to hush. From that moment, Izor’s path narrowed to a single point: you. Duty bound him to her, but a shadow of something else—something he refused to name—kept his eyes locked on her retreating form.
